I have always been a big fan of them, that's why I added this page on my site. Since my first Casiopea album 'Eyes of the Mind' I found them very musical, creative in arranging musics, groovy, and sometimes romantic.

Then I got Asian Dreamer I and II, Freshness, Flowers, Light and Shadows, Be, and the last one Material. I see the Asian Dreamer, Freshness and Flowers as asian music, it sounds very oriental and unique. But after their Light and Shadows recording, their music has turned like some western fusion which is very less oriental.

As a drummer, of all casiopea's ever joining drummer, I like Noriaki Kumagai best. You'll see it in Galactic Funk from Asian Dreamer II.

See them performing.
